I thought it was a great play and I still hope he becomes what we want him to become. Any great okay can help build a players confidence which could in turn give him a little more swag which in turn could help him turn the corner to develop into what we hope their potential to be. I would love to see more from him like that.

 

Good plays are contagious. And the inverse is also true. Good teams make fewer mistakes, and in a game that is usually close, that can mean the difference between winning, and losing.

 

CJ is playing far better than last year. But every little mistake gets taken out of context and over-blown. It's just what fans do.

There are still a few good posters, but there is a whole lot of Meh going on.  Bad football equals bad forum I guess.

Yeah I started a thread curious about QB rankings in the next draft, and was curious how people compared Corral’s tape to the upcoming class. 
 

It basically devolved into not discussing prospects at all, and “Corral is Jimmy Pickles” posts.

It happens all the time. Heck, even make a hopeful comment during a thread, and you get all Hell thrown at you. 

 

CJ is having a pretty good year imo. A few bad plays here and there. But name me 1 DB that is perfect, and I'll salute you. Hell, Horn is having a really good year, and folks are ragging on him. 

 

Bad football seems to equal bad forum.

He's had Urban Meyer and Matt Rhule guiding his development as grand master football. I think it might take him a bit longer. 

 

I would say that is not a good sign for his development. lol 

 

IMO, he has played well lately. Not perfect, but I don't expect perfect. I would say depending on how things go here. He may just be on the team again next year. I know,  Oh The Horror. lol

Well, when you put it that way, you may be onto something.  We still need to see a whole hell of a lot more from him to pickup that option.

Yea... re-watching that play, he definitely could've cut it back and possibly scored, but no one could've guessed our kicker had lava in his veins. 

I told my wife that when it happened. You can't take for granted that our offense will not turn it over or our kicker miss the kick. Try to score!

We don’t have to pick up his 5th year to keep him around. If he doesn’t show he’s worth that kind of money, extend him with a more appropriate contract which is what I’m hoping. He’s not as bad as portrayed here. If he cleans up his technique on playing the ball when his back is to it, he’ll be an above average corner in the league. He’s right there most of the time.

Quality of play leads to accountability IMO and that definitely snowballs either direction.

Defensive spotlight: On first review, Panthers cornerback C.J. Henderson earned the best defensive grade of anyone on either team.  He snagged an interception in overtime that should have led to an easy field goal and a win after a great return by Henderson.

And IIRC, the Rams game where Donte Jackson got a pick-six, he still had one of the lowest PFF grades in the game, like in the 40-50 range.  So PFF clearly thought highly of CJ's performance beyond just the interception.

That’s my opinion too so PFF is correct.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
